Another Great Escape !!!

Day 2 of owning our  " wild child  " -  Lila proceeded to run right thru my legs when I was leading her back in the house after her morning constitution - sound familiar??   I remember when Duds pulled the same escape route on his 2nd day here......which actually helped me in my retrieval plan :)

I knew she would head to our next door neighbor's backyard - thank you again Marco - & she did.  Knowing it was fenced all around - I ran across their front yard & was waiting for her to exit by another neighbor's  driveway.  She took one look @ me & weaved  the opposite direction :(    I " flew " thru the air to grab her collar & landed on the ground ......in my PJ's & slippers no less !!  Luckily, I didn't see any body looking 2 me & the bus had just picked up the kids for school @ the corner.....whew.

                                             I think Fest was sorry I caught her !!

I had been told she was micro-chipped BUT registered to no one & I had not had time to get an ID tag made......so had she gotten away from me - who knows how we would have found her.
Needless to say, she is now registered & tagged so IF she feels the urge to mosey @ the block - hopefully she would greet somebody dog friendly & be returned safely  :)

Later that morning - I took her down to the tennis courts & secured the gate w/ her leash & figured if she would not come back to me - I could call home & have lunch delivered!!  Luckily , she stayed @ my side while we did laps around our lil gated play area & was happy to have her leash put back on :)
